[Mediawiki-l] Allow PDF uploads?

I found the answer to one of my questions:

Put this in LocalSettings.php:

$wgFileExtensions = array( 'png', 'gif', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'ogg', 'pdf',
'mov', 'mp3' );

I found that I can use <embed src='document.pdf>

PDF is a document, not an image format. As far as I know, there is
also no server-side control which would allow display of PDF files, so
I have a nasty feeling the answer to both your questions is, "no".
